LSU baseball announced its starting pitcher for its game on Tuesday. In the first round of the SEC Tournament against Oklahoma, the Tigers turn to one of their weekend starters.
William Schmidt gets the nod on the bump for LSU's first-round game vs. Oklahoma. The right-handed pitcher made 13 starts in his first full season as part of the weekend rotation. He comes into the game against the Sooners fresh off a 10-day break.
The sophomore leads the team with a 1.33 WHIP, 64 innings pitched and 85 strikeouts. Schmidt posted a 4.22 ERA in the regular season. His last appearance came at Georgia on May 8.
Schmidt pitched during the second game of a three-game set against Oklahoma in the regular season. Over four innings, He allowed one run on six hits and finished with seven strikeouts.
LSU's bullpen got its work over the weekend against Florida without Schmidt or fellow regular weekend starter Casan Evans available to begin the games. It hopes to get much-needed rest and a win out of Schmidt to keep the season alive.
LSU baseball vs. Oklahoma is the final game of the day on Tuesday with a tentative start time of 8:00 p.m. CT.
Both semi-final games will take place on Saturday, May 23. The first semi-final, Game 13, is slated for 12:00 p.m. CT. The second semi-final, Game 14, is slated for 4:00 p.m. CT.
The SEC Championship will be played on Sunday, May 24. First pitch is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. CT on ABC.
